I wanted to be famous. I wanted people to talk about me.

All athletes need three things: commitment, discipline and hard work. Without that it's hard to keep running.

When you run the marathon, you run against the distance, not against the other runners and not against the time.

Once you have commitment, you need the discipline and hard work to get you there.

I always tell young athletes the same thing, 'Wherever you go, whatever you do, what must your top priority be? Running.'

Always, if you win mentally, you can win physically as well.

For me a day without training is like a day without eating.

You must do as your people do. If my people are poor, I must be poor. People ask me, 'Why don't you find a personal coach or a private car?' I can't. Then I won't be part of my people.

You need three things to win: discipline, hard work and, before everything maybe, commitment. No one will make it without those three. Sport teaches you that.

I will always listen to my coaches. But first I listen to my body. If what they tell me suits my body, great. If my body doesn't feel good with what they say, then always my body comes first.

It is not my duty to spend my money in my country, but it is what I want to do. There is nowhere else I would like to invest.

You need to grow up, and realize what it is you need right now, and what you can live without.

Trying to change someone who isn't willing to change, is like attempting to turn on the light after the energy provider has cut off the electricity.

The most classic horror tale of this latter type is the Old Testament story of Job, who becomes human Astro-Turf in a kind of spiritual Superbowl between God and Satan.

I should have known right then that I was dreaming. But oh how we hang on to dreams even when we are gifted the largest of clues.

Heroes don't always have capes, badges or uniforms. Sometimes, they support those who do.

You're my exception.

It's easy to talk about how much you love God, but loving others reveals how much you truly do.

Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind.

Is Billy Idol just doing a bad Elvis pout, or was he born that way?

If you are what you say you are A superstar Then have no fear The camera's is here and the microphones and they wanna know Oh oh oh oh yeah If you are what you say you are Then have no fear
